Good morning, and welcome into Wednesday show. It's one oh
five nine in the right Nashville's Classic Rockets Battle in
the Morning. So glad that you're waking up here with
us forty three degrees currently right now in Nashville, looking
at a high of sixty five today. What's crazy is
we've been experiencing miserably cold weather and by Friday we're
(00:24):
going to be in the seventies, and then by Monday
you're going to be sick because this weather just keeps
flip flopping around. I wish it would make up its
damn mine and figure out what season it's in, but
you know, it's Mother Nature, the mind of its zone.
Coming up on this show today, six forty matt rive
tickets for you when we play one stupid question, and
then we will try to get somebody to Vegas at

take a look at what's trending this morning. Kiss Legend
Ace Frehley's official cause of death has been announced. The
rock legend pass away nearly a month ago, back on
October sixteenth, at the age of seventy four. Yesterday, a
report from the Morris County, New Jersey Medical Examiner confirmed
(01:05):
that Frehley died of blunt trauma injuries after a fall,
which was reported at the time to have been a
minor uh. The manner of his death was ruled an accident. Also,
there is a new trend hitting social media, boring new trend.
It seems that when kids are sitting around bored, they're
(01:25):
finding it to be the perfect time to take a
video of themselves sitting around being bored. The challenge is
to sit idle and free of distractions for a prolonged
period of time. The length of time can range from
a few minutes to hours, and these boring ass videos
have managed to rack up millions of views in the process.
So I guess the new trend is be bored and
film yourself. Make your voice heard in joint Battle in

You're your five nine the Rock Road Report. Good morning.
This crash still in the left land. It's one O
five nine the right Nashville's classy Rackets Battle in the morning.
So you know, there's so much unnecessary stress and transportation lately.
You know, simply going from point A to point B
light rail seems like it would be smoother than driving, flying, bike, riding,
(05:20):
or even walking in some areas, but not always. There's
a video that now has been released from an incident
that happened in September where a light rail train flew
into a curve and a high speed and in jolted
passengers around after the driver dozed off. Now here's audio
from the video of how things played out.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
This is the.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Right, regulous, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Relax, relx rely, we didn't clish that.

the driver, like that is what you tell people. Relax, Relax, Relax,
we didn't crash. It's one O five nine in the right
Nashville's Classic Rocket's Battle in the Morning. Now, I saw
this online and it kind of stopped me in my tracks.
There's a Reddit thread blowing up right now where people
(06:19):
are saying that turkey is the worst part of Thanksgiving dinner. Like,
excuse me, the main event of Thanksgiving is suddenly the jobber.
They're the Brooklyn Brawler of Thanksgiving. No, I can't let
that slide. It's one o five, not in the right
Nashville's Classic Rock It's Battle in the Morning. Look, I
get it, turkey can be a little dry if your
(06:40):
uncle doesn't know what he's doing in the kitchen. But
turkey is the centerpiece. You don't get mashed potatoes and
gravy without the turkey. You don't get that post meal
nap without the turkey. You don't build an entire day
around green bean casserole. Let's be real for a second.
So I'm calling bs on this credit thread. Turkey is
(07:00):
a Thanksgiving staple and it deserves some respect. But I
want to get your thoughts on this, and what do
you think about it. Is turkey really overrated or are
people just doing Thanksgiving wrong? Six one five seven three
seven one oh five nine is the number against. Six
one five, seven, three seven, one oh five nine is
the number. What do you think is turkey the worst
thing about Thanksgiving dinner? Six one five seven, three seven,
(07:22):
one oh five nine is the number. We'll jump into
your phone calls Next in the morning National Classic Rock Rock.
If it's twenty five nine in the rod Nashville's Classic Rock,
it's Battle in the Morning. There's a Reddit thread going
around asking uh or actually not asking, stating turkey is
the worst thing about Thanksgiving dinner and a lot of
people are agreeing with it. Six one five, seven, three seven,
(07:45):
one oh five nine is the number. I want to
get your thoughts on this. Let's go to Ken in
Pleasant View. Ken. What do you think, man? It's agreed? Yeah, disagreed.
Turkey is the staple of Thanksgiving. I feel like it's
not a food you really want to eat too much
of A lot of times is dried. But right, no,
that's that's But I will.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
Say there are definitely a lot more options that are
just as good as turkey at Thanksgiving.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
But I don't think it's it's overrated or anything like that.
It's the backbone of Thanksgiving, right because when you think
of Thanksgiving you think of the Thanksgiving turkey or if
you're a John Madden fan, turduccive Six one five seventh,
three seven, one oh five nine is the number. What
are your thoughts? Is turkey the worst thing about Thanksgiving dinner?
Six one five seventh three seven, one oh five nine
(08:32):
is the number. It's one o five nine. The rock
hot is this? This is Cameron Hammer, Cameron, what's up? Man?
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Turkey is not the main event. It's all about the
side one thousand percent.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
I've been to a couple of Thanksgiving dinners where it's
just been all sides and no like main dish.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Yeah, and we mostly do our main meal, our meat.
Speaker 4 (08:52):
Of that would be ham for us. We don't really
even do turkey.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
So it's all.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
About the side. Me it's always I love you.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
You and me both, and give me like a honey
baked ham with it. We're good to go, absolutely, Kevin.
I appreciate you colling in this morning, man. I have
a good day you too. The great Thanksgiving debate happening
right now on the show. It's one oh five nine.
The Right National's Classic Rockets battle in the morning. Agree
or disagree Turkey is the worst thing about Thanksgiving dinner.
(09:22):
Let's go to Kyle in Antioch. What do you think, ma'am?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Absolutely, it's one hundred percent yes.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
Why do we keep going back to the.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
Turkey every year?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Can we switch it up? Can we do pizza? Can
we do burgers? Can we stak?
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Why does it have to be a turkey? It's a
stupid I think the reason why of turkey is obviously
just because it's a tradition, right, Turkey, Thanksgiving Turkey? It
goes back years, hundreds of years, I would assume of
the turkey.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Also, you can't be like, hey, you know, can you
give me a slice of the other Thanksgiving pizza? It
just doesn't sound right Thanksgiving tur right. I disagree in
this part. I think that actually cranberry sauce is the
worst thing about Thanksgiving dinner. There I said it.

smoke turkeys and they are absolutely the best.

eight ten tomorrow. You know, you look around, you see
so much negativity, whether it's on TV, on social media, whatever.

me a little feel good story. Twelve O five nine

Now a Purple Heart is one of the most prestigious
awards a member of the military can receive, and an
official in Illinois just helped the family of a World
War Two veteran named James Bennett get it back. James
passed away in nineteen ninety at the age of seventy six,
(17:13):
and he'd apparently left the award in a safe deposit
back which was marked as abandoned. Now it's been reunited
with his family. Unfortunately, it sounds like this is a

Speaker 3 (09:30):
Turkey every year?
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Can we switch it up? Can we do pizza? Can
we do burgers? Can we stak?
Speaker 3 (09:35):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Why does it have to be a turkey? It's a
stupid I think the reason why of turkey is obviously
just because it's a tradition, right, Turkey, Thanksgiving Turkey? It
goes back years, hundreds of years, I would assume of
the turkey.
Speaker 4 (09:49):
Right.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Also, you can't be like, hey, you know, can you
give me a slice of the other Thanksgiving pizza? It
just doesn't sound right Thanksgiving tur right. I disagree in
this part. I think that actually cranberry sauce is the
worst thing about Thanksgiving dinner. There I said it.

Speaker 4 (15:18):
I was just calling in a boucher Thanksgiving dinner. What's
the grossest thing to me is the cranberry sauce.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
See, thank you. Cranberry sauce is the most vile thing.
I don't care if it comes from the can or
if it's freshly made. Cranberry sauce is awful.
Speaker 4 (15:33):
Yes it is. And now these people about the turkey,
apparently they've never had a smoke turkey. My grandson does
smoke turkeys and they are absolutely the best.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
You know, Teresa, to be honest with you, I don't
think I've ever had a smoke turkey. Maybe, uh, maybe
we might put that as the bird this year on
our Thanksgiving dinner.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
Oh, it's awesome. Injected and then smoke it all day
or all night to night before we can.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
Now, I'm getting hungry for some smoke turkey now, so
I'm gonna have to try to find some.
Speaker 4 (16:05):
There you go, Teresa.

I appreciate you calling in this morning. You two have
a good one. You know who's not gonna have a
good one, Nicole Tony, because well the clock has ran out.
Does anybody want this Vegas vacation? Because here's the thing is,
I will talk to people and they'll be like, why
didn't you call my name? Why don't you call my name? Well,
we spin the wheel and it lands on somebody's name.
(16:29):
I don't think if the wheel picks it, So I
guess we'll spin the wheel again tomorrow. Battle in the
Morning is Vegas vacation thanks to our friends at the
min Gaming Hall, Kentucky, Dallas. We'll do it again at
eight ten tomorrow. You know, you look around, you see
so much negativity, whether it's on TV, on social media, whatever.
How about we spread some positivity here this morning. Give
(16:51):
me a little feel good story. Twelve O five nine
in the Right, Nashville's classic Rockets Battle in the Morning.
Now a Purple Heart is one of the most prestigious
awards a member of the military can receive, and an
official in Illinois just helped the family of a World
War Two veteran named James Bennett get it back. James
passed away in nineteen ninety at the age of seventy six,
(17:13):
and he'd apparently left the award in a safe deposit
back which was marked as abandoned. Now it's been reunited
with his family. Unfortunately, it sounds like this is a
pretty common issue, but what a feel good story. A
day after Veterans Day, It's one oh five nine in the Rock,
Nashville's classic rock still rolling commercial free with Fleetwood Mack.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
